Oops that's supposed to say Modesto ca.The names Charles,And I'm an old fart that loves poking around the garden and blindly trying to growanything specially stuff folks say I can't.I sort of operate on a Darwin approach buy a bunch of plants baby them along to maturity and then sneak them into the garden hoping the other plants don't pick on him.I will also plant a ton of seedlings and expose them to my winters to see how they fair.Eventually I find one or two that maybe unhappy when it's chilly but survive.

If I can't with a minimum of fuss they likely will be replaced with a better candidate.
